  No progress bar during download.  furjaw at 07:15 on Tuesday, February 06, 2007
 

I developed a Windows application that I intend to market.
I created a web page with Expressions Web (replaced Front Page).
I have a button labeled "Download 30 Day Free Trial" which I linked to MyApp.zip.
It downloads the zip file, but, there is no indication that it is doing anything.
There is no progress bar.

Have you got the link to your website so that i can have a go myself. I had a similar problem like this before, but i'm not sure if it is the same as yours!

http://www.OrthoLabRx.net

I found the following program which does display a nice progress bar.
I changed it so that the download button links to this program instead of to OrthoLabRx.zip.
But, the customer has to know to press "Save" rather than "Run".
After downloading this program, then he has to know to click on "Run".
It then downloads the zipped project with a progress bar.
Then he has to know to click on the zip file, click on "Extract All Files" and finally click on "Setup1.exe".
Too complicated! I want simple!
Could the DownloadFile program run from the website?
I would rather not download it.

"", "", True, 500, True)
Close()
End Sub

ByVal destinationFileName As String, _
ByVal userName As String, _
ByVal password As String, _

End Sub
